We divide 157374 by 61
We want to divide 157374 by 61.

Moving on to step 1:
1 divided by 61 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 61

Advancing to step 2:
The number 61 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 15, we end up with 15.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 157 / 61

Moving on to step 3:
61 can be fit into 157 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 122 from 157, we get 35.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 353 / 61

On to step 4:
353 divided by 61 is 5 with a remainder of 48.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 305 from 353 and we're left with 48.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 487 / 61

Going ahead to step 5:
487 divided by 61 is 7 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 257.0
Subtract 427 from 487 to get 60.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 60 and continue: 604 / 61

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 61 fits into 604 9 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2579.0
If we take 549 away from 604, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
61 goes into 550 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2579.9
Subtracting 549 from 550 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 10 by 61, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2579.9
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
61 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2579.901
Deduct 61 from 100 and we're left with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 10:
61 goes into 390 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2579.9016
If we subtract 366 from 390, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 11:
61 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2579.90163
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 183 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Step 12:
61 goes into 570 9 times with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2579.901639
Deduct 549 from 570 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 61 fits into 210 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2579.9016393
Subtracting 183 from 210 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
61 goes into 270 4 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2579.90163934
If we take 244 away from 270, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2579.90163934 with a remaining 2.6e-08.
